摘要
A newly designed cross-shaped electrode tool and the use of Excimer irradiation to assist in micro-electrochemical etching (mu-ECE) is presented. It is a precise surface treatment method for the nanoscale removal of defective Indium-tin-oxide (In2O3SnO2) conductive nanostructure from optical PET-diaphragms (PET) of digital paper touch-panels. In the current study, 1 72nm Excimer irradiation is used to boost the electrolytic action of the cross-shaped electrode tool. Scoring of the PET surface is eliminated and the workpiece (PET) feed rate can be higher with a consequent reduction in production costs. When Excimer irradiation is used the In2O3SnO2 thin-films are more easily broken up and the nano-particles escape from the PET substrate quickly and cleanly. The required machining time is shortened if Excimer irradiation is used before the electrochemical removal processing (mu-ECE) of the In2O3SnO2 layer.
